Monday, June 22, 2009

As Dan and I walked around the yard after it had rained I thought of the song we sang at Mckayls baptism. "I like to look for rainbows whenever there is rain and ponder on the beauty of an earth made clean again." Everything is so fresh and clean and beautiful after the rain and the raindrops on the leaves glisten like diamonds. It was a beautiful afternoon.

City living in Rockland Maryland

Living the city life for a couple of weeks in Rockland Maryland Town square was quite the lovely adventure. The town square is beautiful with brick paved side walks and streets, beautiful flowers, restraunts, shops, movies and concerts in the square, fountains and pools and elevators(going up, going down, floor 2, floor 3, floor 4. and the groud continues to move after you get off).
I learned how to walk Max (the grand dog) and pick up and dispose of his mess properly. I quess I am now an official dog walking, poopin scoopin, city slicker.
I enjoyed afternoon walks to the park, evening walks, fire flies and beautiful old homes and gorgeous landscape.
We were pampered with great food, yummy treats, pedicures, hair do's, and lots of loves and kisses from the grandkids. It was wonderful to be there for Mckayls baptism, it was a beautiful day in every way. It was neat to have our whole family there together. When Levi got married the sealer said "Heaven is no more than an ideal family". I believe that! Having a family to love and love you is the greatest! Thanks kids for your out pouring of love and hospitality. We are so proud of you, for your love and caring for one another, your hard work and determination. You are the greatest blessing and joy in our lives.
